Help[Opinions] Erna (with a tiny twist)
I know what you're thinking! But no, it wouldn't be ER-na. I am totally in love with the German prn AIR-na. My question is, wdyt of Erna with this pronunciation? Since Erna is a German name, I'm guessing this is technically the original prn.
I don't think it's that big of a pronunciation change or very hard to say. I think that, after a while, people would catch on. At least the people that the child would be around a lot. I don't think I'd nix this name just because "she'll have to correct people a lot". Even people with ordinary names & pronunciations have to correct people from time to time. So, wdyto Erna? Any mn suggestions?
Thanks!
